Overview

Despite being only the second disc in the Shining Force III trilogy, Scenario 2 is actually the rarest of them! There is no clear reason as to why this might be, however it's thought many of them were snapped up soon after the Aspinia Translation Team translated the script into English and made it available online. Though their site is no longer online, the script is now hosted at here at SFC, with their permission.

Another great game, this one takes place at the same time as Scenario 1, this time from the "opposing" Force's viewpoint, under the command of Prince Medion of the Destonian Empire.

The graphics in Scenario 2 are slightly better than in Scenario 1, and the soundtrack is just as wonderful. Overall, I'd say Scenario 2 is the easiest of all three parts.

Shining Force III Scenario 2 was recently re-released in Japan, available through Sega's D-Direct online store. Needless to say, it sold out very quickly, and is once again no longer available.
